Chapter 69: The Optimal Woman?
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"What?" It was Ethan who clarified.
"A marriage alliance!" Responded Lyle Swan. "We could further strengthen our family's wealth by making this arrangement."
A sly grin formed on Melissa Swan's face before she suggested, "Something that Gaby could never offer to the Wrights."
For seconds, silence engulfed the dining room, and all eyes were at Kyle and Gabrielle. Everyone saw Kyle's murderous eyes at that very moment!
Samantha acted first, raising a hand at Kyle, signaling her son to hold back. Silently, she was telling Kyle to let her handle it first.
She forced a smile and said to the Swans, "Lyle, this is... not what we expected." She glanced at Lyla and with a gentle expression, she recapped, "Lyla is a good friend of Kate, someone we have known for a very long time. Moreover, she is a woman with an excellent social status!"
Hearing that, Lyla smiled before flashing a devious look at Gabrielle. Her inside were screaming

Similar to Kyle, Ethan was known to be a stern person, but never did the Swans expect such grim words coming from the previous president of the Wright Diamond Corporation. Moreover, they just witnessed Samantha Wright, the angelic wife of Ethan Wright, discredit their daughter! Melissa and Lyle found themselves gawking in shock for seconds. Lyla's father only recovered after Samantha added, "Lyla, please leave some pride for yourself." "This is ridiculous! How dare you question my daughter's moral, moreover, my choice in women!" Lyle stood up, glaring at Ethan. "At least my wife and my daughter came from a proper upbringing!" "Excuse me, but Gaby was brought up with character, independence, and humility, a quality far better than what you and your daughter presented just now! Gaby, at least did not have to force herself to a man!" This time, it was Kyle who pointed out in his impassioned tone. "And let me just say this right now, no one, and I repeat! No one

"Gaby, no matter what other people say, what counts most is how important you are to us. Don't ever blame yourself for what happened just now," Samantha said, comforting Gabrielle as she remained seated in silence in the dining area. Samantha hit the bullseye! Gabrielle honestly felt regretful inside. The Wright Diamond Corporation may have just lost a business partner and Kate probably lost her best friend. While she knew she did nothing wrong, she understood the gravity of what was lost. The family crowded around her, giving Gabrielle the assurance she needed. "Yes, sis. Don't mind Lyla. She is just jealous. She has been obsessed with Kyle since we were in high school," revealed Kaleb. "Either way, it would have still happened. Kyle... he - he never liked Lyla and I'm telling you, men, we don't like a puppy following us around." "Sam is right. In this world, we cannot please everybody, but what matters most is our true relati

"This is crazy, one of the longest lines I've ever brought a talent to for an audition," Denise shook her head, looking at the queue of actors and actresses auditioning for the film, 'The Fallen Princess' Return.' While Kyle was finding a way to get the Swans to sell their company shares, Gabrielle and Denise flew all the way to the City of Angels, hoping to get a chance to take the lead role of the movie set in medieval times. It was a story about a princess' undying love for her prince that she resorted to scheming and unlawful acts to gain power so her husband would fall in favor of the crown. However, the princess was executed after her crimes were revealed to the emperor. The princess, whose name was Amanda, was reborn and swore to correct her mistakes and be a good wife to her husband, the future emperor of the kingdom. Gabrielle found the story very appealing, especially since the character of Amanda eventually found out, following

Back home at Braeton, Gabrielle was sleeping face down on Kyle's bed, tired after her audition trip. Kyle had to wake her at nine in the evening, just to check if she has had supper. "Gaby, did you eat dinner?" He leaned over and pecked on her cheek, repeating his query, "Did you eat? Because I could use a company." Rolling heavily on her back, Gabrielle took a deep breath. She forced a smile and opened her eyes, saying, "Hi handsome, how was your day?" Pouting her lips she declared, "I sure miss you. I could use a kiss." She wrapped her arms around the man's neck and forced him to lie on top of her. For seconds, they indulged in a passionate kiss, only to stop upon hearing Kyle's growling tummy. "Beautiful, I am usually more greedy for you, but today, I did not eat lunch so I am hungry as hell." Kyle gave her one last peck before helping her out of bed. "Let's eat." As they ate, Gabrielle reported the status of the audition. She s
I Kissed A CEO And He Liked It! Chapter 74: The Break Up
"Action!" Clothed in silk-like material, Princess Amanda gasped dramatically, seeing her husband for the first time in that lifetime. She awoke that day, realizing she had been reborn on the day of their marriage. With nothing but the yearning in her eyes, her lips trembled as she called on to him, "Prince Lark?" A tear fell down her cheek as she rushed to her husband with a sweet embrace. "My prince, I will never leave your side this time," the character of Princess Amanda unwittingly muttered, making the prince laugh. "Princess Amanda, while I have longed to marry you, I am surprised by your immediate affection," reported Prince Lark. The princess, played by Gabrielle, quickly retreated her arms and took a step back. She lowered her gaze before apologizing, "I'm - I'm sorry." She performed to blush and reasoned, "You are truly handsome. I - I just could not help it." Following a few more lines from the script,

"You look... mighty high," Denise remarked, shaking her head at the sight of Gabrielle during their return for the shoot. "Like you had gotten laid, big time!" A scoff left her lips before looking down at Gabrielle's legs, and she continued, "And why are you limping?" While turning bright red, Gabrielle put a finger against her lips and said, "Shhhh... Stop it. I am not limping - just. I just had a lot of exercises lately!" Denise laughed before escorting Gabrielle to her designated dressing room, saying, "Oh, well. Lucky you. You've been banged by a tall and handsome, rich man!" "Stop it!" Gabrielle reminded, looking around and hoping nobody heard Denise. Little did Gabrielle know, Ellice, her co-star, once again became witness to their quick exchange, having overheard from behind a row of medieval dresses on standby. The details of their conversation easily reached Rosie's ears. During the shoot, Gabrielle immediately not

Is Gaby Taylor's mystery boyfriend Kaleb Wright?] It did not take long for the media to catch on with the gossip, even featuring the actress Ellice, having witnessed the so-called intimate moment between Kaleb and Gabrielle. Of course, she did not fail to suggest that Gabrielle had stolen Rosie's long-time boyfriend! Rosie's followers were quick to attack Gabrielle's social media pages, calling her many names. Many of Gabrielle's fans, however, went back to her photos, hoping to get clues of who was her secret boyfriend. They were even able to point out the fact that Kate and Gabrielle were acquainted, adding speculation to the possible relationship. From his office, Kyle Wright had rolled a piece of paper into his hand. His eyes narrowed at his laptop, looking at the article that spread across the internet, suggesting his own brother was the lover of his girlfriend! With a gloomy expression, he reached for his phone and

It had been nearly two months since Gabrielle left Braeton, merely focusing on the new movies she was cast for. And in that entire time, her co-actresses barely welcomed her. The male actors mostly did not care about the issues surrounding her. However, the ladies, even some of the crew, judged her from day one. From questioning her capacity to play the role to be the person who stole Rosie Hall's boyfriend. That day, however, she was about to clear her name, revealing her true boyfriend. Rosie Hall was still enraged after hearing the director's announcement. She was fully convinced that Gabrielle was in a relationship with Kaleb. She turned to the entrance of the set, looking past Denise and Gabrielle, and thought, 'This is my chance to speak to Kaleb in person, anyway! Who cares! I'm going to win him back!' As the man's figure slowly came about, the ladies were ready to cast another scolding in Gabrielle's way. Much to their surpri

Gabrielle never expected it. It was never in their talks nor did her husband hinted they would get married again on their tenth year anniversary. Imagine her surprise when he proposed to her again on the day of her commercial shoot with the children. It was such a perfect timing! In just a month, in front of their families and friends, they renewed their vows. This time, in a more breathtaking venue by the beach, the couple stood in front of an elevated platform, facing the sea.Gabrielle and Kyle had their wedding anniversary at sunrise, a perfect time to receive that day's blessings. Gabrielle, at thirty-seven, was looking radiant in her wedding dress. Kyle, at forty-three, showed more appeal than his younger years, wearing his custom-made suit. "Let's acknowledge it. We both were made perfect by God." Kyle said with confidence, smirking as he gazed at his wife during his promise. "To me, you are the most beaut

Putting down the flowers against the tomb, Kyle caressed the name that appeared on the marbled stone. He greeted, "Good morning, grandma." He turned to the one beside it, saying, "Hello, grandpa." On another grave, Kyle greeted, "Great-grandma, how have you been?" The Wright family visited the graves of the Davises; Matilda Davis, Sarah Davis, and Winfield Davis. Only Amanda and Daniel remained in their homes, merely watching through a video call. Already in their nineties, they could no longer manage to travel long distances. It was some time, two years ago, when Kyle's grandfather, Winfield, passed away. Despite Samantha bringing her mother home with them at the Wright mansion, Sarah followed her husband a few months shortly. "Daddy, who is Matilda again?" It was Gale who asked. Kyle caressed the young girl's head and called the rest of his children. He-reintroduced. He said, "Kids, remember great-gran

Another three years passed. Over time, Kyle had fully expanded business in Europe, following the successful marketing of Freedonia as a vacation destination. The Wright Diamond Corporation eventually started an online travel website, offering package tours where their hotels were exclusively located. With this development, Gabrielle and Kyle ultimately were able to bring their family to Freedonia, taking them for a tour around the gorgeous landscapes that resembled the Netherlands, plus the vast estate of the country's royal grounds. That trip was one of the most memorable ones for Kenneth, especially since he had rarely gone outdoors. All the more when the entire family settled in the Cromwell's manor, a historic, yet luxurious home, made of stones and bricks from the outside. When Kenneth and his siblings rushed to their room's balcony, their eyes widened and their mouths fell to the stunning views.

Two years passed. "Mommy! I love it!" Four-year-old Kenneth exclaimed, hugging Gabrielle and giving his Mommy a kiss! "Havaya, the best supplements for your kids! Try it!" Gabrielle said with a beautiful smile, her eyes glistening at the cameras! "And cut! Good job!" The director said after shooting a commercial that starred Gabrielle and Kenneth. It was because Gabrielle used the same supplement and had found it useful in boosting Kenneth's immune system that she willingly agreed to take the commercial. It was her very first, after many years, accepting a project. The entire time, following her, giving birth to the triplets, she produced two other shows at the BNC media on the sides, one of which received several awards, including the best action series of the year. With Denise working for her, everything was manageable. The best part was, she got to spend most of her time at home with the kids, merely going out for

Another year passed.Smiling in Kyle's arms, waiving and showing off a dimple on his right cheek, Kenneth clapped his hands, following the loud applause coming from his family."Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, happy birthday dear Kenneth! Happy birthday to you!" The entire household sang in unison from within the second-carat conference room of the Second Diamond Hotel."Happy birthday, Kenneth boy!" exclaimed Ethan. "To our handsome little Kyle!" Added Kenzie, who happened to come just for that celebration, bringing along her entire family. Kenneth's second-year birthday was a reunion not to be missed!Even Gabrielle's grandparents from Freedonia took the time to visit since they missed last year's gathering. Diana often said in passing how their years were numbered and how they wished Gabrielle would visit Freedonia, but with Kenneth's condition, it was likely not possible—at least, not anytime soon. Over the past two years, only Kyle had visited Freedonia, merely checking

"Happy Birthday, Kenneth!" With a loud round of applause, the Wright family greeted Kenneth on his very first birthday, celebrated only amongst family and close friends within the first-carat conference room of The Second Diamond Hotel. Gabrielle stood in front of an elevated platform, holding her son with Kyle next to her. They had a table ready for Kenneth to crawl to and on top was a small round cake for him to shatter! Everyone saw the delight in Kenneth's eyes as he giggled his way to reach for the white cake.While everyone cheered him on, he tasted the frosting before finally indulging! "Atta boy!" Kyle exclaimed while he watched his son, blocking the side of the table, making sure he does not fall. "Eat some more!" "Ooops! Careful!" Gabrielle exclaimed, seeing her son move towards his father, giving Kyle a piece of cake! "Dada! Dada!" Kenneth called his father, urging him to taste the white frosted chocolate cake.&nb

"Good evening! This is the late nights with Tommy Hawks! Tonight, as promised, we have Gaby Taylor - Wright, live from their home, accepting our request for an interview." Tommy announced from his studio, walking as the cameras followed him. "As you may have heard, Gaby and her family had been through a difficult time, following an attack by an obsessed fan!" Tommy shook his head, hissing before resuming, "This resulted in Gaby's life and that of the child she carried, in danger." The show quickly showed a flashback of a news broadcast, detailing the crash that happened with Gabrielle and how it was reported that her life, including her unborn child, was in danger. "Now, over three months have passed. Many of you probably have several questions and thus, we made it possible to interview Gaby without coming all the way to Hollywood!" Tommy pointed to the huge screen on his set, and the cameras were quick to follow. Gabrielle was alrea

"Mom, Dad, thanks for coming over," Gabrielle said with a smile after opening the door of their penthouse. "Of course. We are happy to look after Kenneth for this afternoon." Samantha pecked on Gabrielle's cheek and held Gabrielle's hand, saying, "You do what you have to do." Behind Samantha, Ethan nodded and suggested, "Sometimes, you need to get it out of your chest. Be safe traveling." Looking past Gabrielle, Ethan asked, "Where is my grandson?" "The nurse is giving him a bath. He... just dirtied his diapers," Gabrielle answered, looking in the direction of their living room. After inviting her in-laws inside their home, she kissed Kenneth goodbye and made her way to the lobby of The Second Diamond Hotel. Kyle was already waiting for her, together with their new driver and bodyguard. Hopping into the car, she heard her husband ask, "Are you ready for this, Gaby? Are you sure you want to see?"
